For a long-term investor (5–10+ years), I would choose stocks.
A 5% Treasury yield is attractive because the income is more predictable and market risk is lower. But stocks can potentially deliver higher total returns through earnings growth and capital appreciation.
The key is not to chase expensive stocks. With Treasury yields above 5%, high-growth stocks face more pressure because their valuations become harder to justify.
I would focus on profitable companies with:
Strong revenue growth
Healthy cash flow
Low/manageable debt
Strong competitive advantages
Bottom line:
A = safer income.
B = higher long-term growth potential, but higher risk.
For me, B, but I would buy gradually rather than all at once.
